PARTIES who have been interested
in the newly discovered gold and
silver fields in this state-on the
west bank of the Chippewa, about
80 miles from EauClaire--have
placed drill in service. After hav-
ing penetrated the earth to distance
of 80 feet they find the result most
favorable. An assay of the ore
shows $l3 of silver and "a of gold
to the ton. Further developments
will at once be pushed.
THE great complaint of students,
especially those who attend High
Schools, is that they do not have
time to get their lessons as they
should, but they have all the time
there is, and when we hear one
student say TO another, have you
your orthoepy lesson? And the
other replies, "Oh | have studied it
over four or five times, but / don't
know much more about it now than
/ did before" we conclude that
time alone is not TO blame for ali
the trouble.
"THERE has been lots of money
in the cheese business this year for
the manufacturer and dealer, who
contracted for the milk last spring."
says the Monroe Sentinel. "The
milk was contracted for early and at
about the price of the previous sea
son, in some cases little in ad-
vance. OF course there was then
no telling what the season would
be, or what price cheese would
reach. The luck turned in fovor of
the factory men and handlers, whose
percentage has made the season
very profitable one. This will prob
ably stimulate them to offer better
prices next season to the milk men,"
WHILE Mr.. Adam Goelz was re-
turning to his farm from this city
Tuesday a colt, which he had hitched
by the side of a more experienced
horse, became sufficiently trouble
some to throw Mr. Goez from the
wagon. The accident happened
near the western limits of the city
Assistance was close at hand, the
team secured before it succeeded in
running away, and Mr.. Goelz taken
into Edw. Prideaux's, Jr Dr. Tall
man, upon being summoned, located
"A broken rib, and found that the
patient was suffering from internal
injury. After medical treatment,
livery rig was employed to convey
Mr.. G. to his home. He is now on
the mend, we believe.
HAVING decided to 60 20 Califor-
MA Mr. Alex. Staum, who has so
well pleased our citizens as a barber
and manager of the city bath rooms,
this week sold his business entire to
the Winn Bros. Alex. goes direct
to Elsinor, where VIM. Varcoe has
located. He hopes to better his cir
cuustances. We can say for him
that be is genial fellow, iudustri-
GUS and a competent tousor, able to
please the most fastideous. The
Vim Bros. take possession next
Monday. Having been in our midst
as BARRIERS for long time the public
generally pretty well understand
their abilities, and that understand
ing is in their favor. They will
continue business at their old stand
as we'll as their new.

Why CAN'T With many of
the towns in this and other states
the business pl en- form themselves
into an association for the establish
ing Of various enterprises, such as
creameries, cheese factories, etc,
whereby they are directly benefited
and the town indirectly at least.
Why are our business men 50 in
different, apparently, in going into
anything of this nature? There Is
scarcely any enterprise but what
